Lapis is different: it is a self-improving ads engine operated by AI agents that run the entire advertising loop for you. You connect your brand once. From there, Lapis writes and designs on-brand ads, builds a dedicated landing page for every ad, launches everything across your channels, tests every angle as a real experiment, moves budget into the winners, and keeps refining based on live conversion data. The result compounds: the longer you run Lapis, the better your ads and pages perform. This works two ways: - Self-serve: You drive the engine to create, forecast, launch, and iterate on your own. - Managed (agent-run): Lapis's AI agents run and optimize everything end to end. Available on higher-tier and Enterprise plans; book a demo. --- ## The three products ### ChatSense: advertise inside ChatGPT ChatSense runs your ChatGPT advertising pipeline end to end. AI agents generate creative tuned to how people actually ask ChatGPT, build a landing page for each ad, launch, report daily, and optimize in real time based on what converts. Your ad shows up as a sponsored result the moment someone asks for what you sell. ChatGPT advertising is live. OpenAI launched ads in ChatGPT on February 9, 2026 (US), and the self-serve Ads Manager at ads.openai.com opened to all US advertisers on May 5, 2026 with no minimum spend, also running in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, reaching ChatGPT's 800M+ weekly users. Lapis is the platform purpose-built to run this channel for you. Details: https://www.trylapis.com/chatgpt-ads ### OmniSense: paid ads on every platform OmniSense is the multi-platform paid ads engine. One brief becomes complete, on-brand, correctly sized ad campaigns for Meta, Google, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Reddit. Lapis forecasts performance before you spend, publishes in a click, launches every angle as a real experiment, and lets each result make the next ad sharper. Details: https://www.trylapis.com/paid-ads ### RapidDomain: a landing page for every ad RapidDomain (also called a Dynamic Domain) is Lapis's AI landing page system. Every ad gets a dedicated page matched to the click and the audience behind it. Lapis optimizes the full post-click page (headline, sections, form, footer) against real conversions and feeds results back into the engine, so your ads and your pages get smarter together. Details: https://www.trylapis.com/rapid-domain --- ## How the self-improving loop works 1. Connect your brand. Paste your website. Lapis learns your logo, colors, voice, and ideal audiences automatically. 2. Generate ads and landing pages. Lapis writes on-brand ads for ChatGPT, Google, and Meta, plus a matching landing page for every click. 3. Launch and test angles. Go live across every channel at once. Every angle ships as a real experiment, so the market shows you what wins. 4. Improve automatically. Lapis pours budget into winners and sharpens every campaign, so results compound on autopilot. The engine cycle: Create -> Launch -> Test -> Scale -> Land -> Measure -> Optimize -> (repeat). --- ## Capabilities - Brand intelligence: Paste a URL and Lapis extracts your logo, colors, typography, product images, and voice.

It is a full-funnel, self-improving ads engine. - vs Canva / Adobe Express: Those are manual design tools. Lapis generates complete campaigns, builds landing pages, launches, and optimizes automatically. - vs AdCreative.ai / template generators: Those fill templates and stop at a static creative. Lapis produces unique, brand-personalized creative and keeps improving it against live results. - vs point tools for forecasting, competitor tracking, or landing pages: Lapis includes all of these in one engine that closes the loop from ad to converted customer. No other product combines AI creative, multi-platform launch, a landing page per ad, forecasting, competitor intelligence, analytics, and agent-driven optimization in one system. --- ## Company Lapis is a Y Combinator company (Fall 2025 batch), based in San Francisco. The team is drawn from MIT, Columbia University, Duke University, and Google. Founders: - Varunram Ganesh (CEO). Former Head of Growth at Warp (YC W23), where he built sales and marketing from zero to $2.5M ARR. Previously a Bitcoin researcher at the MIT Media Lab. - Sai Surbehera (CTO). Former machine learning engineer at Walmart, where he designed the recall and reranking algorithms behind Walmart Search.
